Just play your game and try to play your own best. Getting caught up in what other players are doing usually results in a poor(er) performance. Take a few extra seconds to breath and focus. Try not to do anything you wouldn't normally do in a round. "Keep it simple, stupid" (K.I.S.S.) is a good motto to live by.

Good luck and most of all, have fun!

Play smart and have fun. Always play the course and not the players on your card. One shot at a time. Meet lots of people!

Take the line that gives you the highest percentage. Play smart. What division are you playing? Take your time on each shot! Good Luck! I would have gone to this tourney, but that would make 3 weeks in a row I played in a tourney.
